Hardware installation
The hardware installation procedure for your add-on depends on the form factor (ATX or NLX) of your Matrox graphics card. For information specific to your computer, like how to remove its cover, see your system manual.
WARNING: Static electricity can severely damage electronic parts. Before touching any electronic parts, drain the static electricity from your body. You can do this by touching the metal frame of your computer. When handling a card, hold it by its edges and avoid touching its circuitry.
WARNING: Pressing together incorrectly aligned connectors can damage them. Before pressing connectors together, make sure all pins and holes are correctly aligned. After pins and holes are aligned, make sure connectors are firmly pressed together.
WARNING: To help prevent personal injury, allow your computer to cool before touching any of its internal parts.

Software installation
If you have an installation CD-ROM that came with your graphics card in addition to the CD-ROM included with your add-on, use the most recent of these CD-ROMs for the software installation. To find out which is more recent, see the date at the top of each CD-ROM Readme file. Otherwise, use the one included with your add-on.
After your computer has restarted, insert your Matrox installation CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive. If you’re using Windows 95, 98, or NT 4.0, the setup program automatically starts.* Follow the on-screen instructions.
For more digital flat panel information, see the Readme file in the Fpanel folder on your Matrox CD-ROM.
* If Windows doesn’t start the setup program automatically, you can start it manually from the root folder of the CD-ROM.
